Uncle Frankie was checking some statistics on his site today and came across an odd search term someone had used to find him:

“jewish signs of the apocalypse”

Not understanding what could possibly be the connection, I decided to run a search on that term myself through Google and was proud to learn that, out of 142,000 results, this contribution was Number Four in Your Hearts.

In my last posting, I shared my Top 10 stories from 2010 with you. Below is what you, my reading public, found most fascinating over the past 12 months. Not surprisingly, your favorite topic was – wait for it – BOOBS!

Uncle Frankie is just shocked and amazed kiddies. Not really.

The funniest part is that, in three years of publishing this blog, I’ve only posted “Boob Content” twice that I can think of. And even then, the posts were not essentially about the boobs themselves. Nonetheless, there are certain truisms in life, one of which is that everyone – male or female – loves boobs.

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how Stuff Frank Finds Funny did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:

The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow.

Crunchy numbers

The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 120,000 times in 2010. If it were an exhibit at The Louvre Museum, it would take 5 days for that many people to see it.

In 2010, there were 106 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 192 posts. There were 147 pictures uploaded, taking up a total of 8mb. That’s about 3 pictures per week.

As a kid I was a big fan of the Scooby Doo cartoon series. As a young adult I did quite a bit of voice-over work for corporate training videos and radio spots. Later in life I was also very fortunate to have done over 80 hour-long live radio shows on a couple of big-time stations.

Long story short: I’m an aficionado of professional voice talent and a sucker for Shaggy – who was voiced by Casey Kasem of American Top 40 radio fame. I hope you enjoy this interview with the people behind the characters as much as I did.

BTW: I hope to meet Frank Welker one day. He’s a great talent in spite of his weird name.
